Skin Studio was founded in Boston in 2005 by Irina Fiksler. Irina is a skin care expert and has been an esthetician for over 18 years. She came from Russia and was trained by highly specialized estheticians in cosmetic and medical treatments at Elizabeth Grady School of Esthetics. Irina started her career by working at a prestigious salon on Newbury Street in Boston. There, she fell in love with skin care treatments and waxing. Consequently, she became a skin care expert and opened Skin Studio to help her clients look their best and improve their confidence.

Irina had felt strongly about helping people with acne, aging, and unwanted hair. She had made it her goal to find the right treatment regimen to prevent breakouts, reduce the signs of aging, and find the most gentle wax for hair removal. Irina has had acne herself and she had long searched for the effective treatments and affordable products to get and maintain the clear complexion she had always wanted. Fortunately she had found the way to clear and prevent acne. That has given her confidence and inspired her to help others. 

Irina’s professional goal became to help people to effectively treat common dermatologic conditions. Using the combination of knowledge and experience Irina finds the right treatment to address her client’s specific needs. In addition, as of November 2017, Irina has become an Oncology Certified Esthetician, through intense training and classes. She is so passionate about the industry and wants to help clients with cancer in their healing process, to feel their best.
